    Offense moving the ball is a great sign. Let's see if that can continue after the scripted plays.

    I don't mind mixing it up on third down, but why not run Warren at least once there? They are running it well so far.

    The Chargers are wishing this morning that they took the points last night instead of going for it on fourth repeatedly.

    Better start than the last 5 or 6 playoff games. At least we got points on the board

    OL holding up well. Pushing it down field. Offense has a good plan… let’s go now defense!

    Jonnu needs to take a seat on the bench.

    Looks like there is no wind on the field. The kick was straight down the lane.

    I legitimately think this team has another win or two if Smith gets off his high horse and utilizes Muth properly. It's asinine

    First time since 2017 where we scored points in the first quarter in the playoffs. We are so back

    Take the points, keep attacking on defense. Nice play calling so far by Smith.

    That’s my problem there. Smith needs to let Pat run that all day. Jonnu has been good on that TE run play and some shorter stuff, but anything downfield with AR is a toss up!

    if the offense can continue doing that, i think our d can go to town. i just hate to see them panting by the end of some these games when the offense doesnt help.

    Muth and Heyward deserve more reps than him.

    I don't blame Jonnu. He just need a better QB.

    Their best play for the TE is Muth in MOF, yet Jonnu seems to get most of the snaps :facepalm:.

    I think it's a pretty solid start. They've moved the ball both times they have had it.

    Now the defense needs to continue to make them work for everything and limit points as much as they can.
